متن کاملAssay Validation for KIM-1: human urinary renal dysfunction biomarker
Urinary kidney injury molecule (KIM-1) is a sensitive quantitative biomarker for early detection of kidney tubular injury. The objective of the present work was to analytically validate this urinary renal injury biomarker. Duo-set reagents from R&D were used to develop the ELISA and validate the assay's linearity, intra-run precision, inter-run precision, lower limit of quantification, recovery...
متن کاملResident macrophages mediate islet amyloid polypeptide-induced islet IL-1β production and β-cell dysfunction.
Islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) aggregates to form amyloid fibrils in patients with type 2 diabetes and acts as a potent stimulus for interleukin (IL)-1β secretion by bone marrow-derived macrophages. We sought to determine the contribution of resident islet macrophages to IAPP-induced inflammation and β-cell dysfunction. In cultured islets, macrophages (F4/80(+)CD11b(+)CD11c(+) cells) were req...
متن کاملCholesterol in islet dysfunction and type 2 diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) frequently occurs in the context of abnormalities of plasma lipoproteins. However, a role for elevated levels of plasma cholesterol in the pathogenesis of this disease is not well established. Recent evidence suggests that alterations of plasma and islet cholesterol levels may contribute to islet dysfunction and loss of insulin secretion. A number of genes involved in lipi...
متن کاملCLINICAL TRANSPLANTATION Early Metabolic Markers of Islet Allograft Dysfunction
Background. Islet transplantation can restore normoglycemia to patients with unstable type 1 diabetes mellitus, but long-term insulin independence is usually not sustained. Identification of predictor(s) of islet allograft dysfunction (IGD) might allow for early intervention(s) to preserve functional islet mass. Methods. Fourteen islet transplantation recipients with long-term history of type 1...
